The final day.

Day 31 - A picture of yourself.

Look! I did it!! Okay. I cheated some days I knew I would be busy. Just wrote them a night or two in advance and just clicked publish on the correct day. Regardless. I made it to day 31. :-) I am not sure why they repeated this one.... sooooo..... here I guess???

Day 30 - A picture of someone that you miss.

Wow there is no way I can narrow this down to just one person. I relocated my life so there are so many people I miss from Georgia. Shoot on that note I miss some of my out of state drum corps friends too. 

My Mom.

My Georgia Hall Family & Housing Friends.

My SAI Sisters.

My High School Girls.

Some drum corps friends. 

(There are so many of them so I've just gotta go with the logo on this one)

My Camp Friends. Many are not shown.

Day 29 - A picture that can always make you smile.

Ummm.... wtf. I don't really understand the difference between this and Day 8. In case you forgot, that was a picture that makes you laugh. Ummm... I feel like if I am laughing I am probably smiling as well. I think this is a stupid day and so I am rebelling. No challenge post today! If you want to see some pictures I think are funny you can go to that link. Cya!

I was all set up to have a productive wonderful day. I was going to do a photoshoot with some friends, get my car worked on, go grocery shopping, and you know... those life essentials. Then I wake up to this nasty funk outside. My motivation to be productive has been hit by a semi and left on the side of the road to die. I know I can't be lazy ALL day. There are just some things that HAVE to get done. However I am procrastinating actually DOING these said things by blogging about what I should do and what I am actually going to do. :-)

I was looking for a "rainy day" picture to post since I have no desire to get off my couch and take one myself. I found this. 

I don't want to be creeped on by a dinosaur so I am going to stay inside as much as possible. 

I took the first step of getting my car repaired by posting on one of the navy wives groups about it. Lol. It is a start right? I hear it is better to actually make an appointment for those things anyways. Maybe I will do it on Thursday, my next day off. 

Next on my to do list was to make an eye appointment. I already asked navy wives about this and I am still a little confused about how to do it. This tricare stuff confuses the crap out of me. So, I am going to ask a personal friend about it. Maybe she will help me out. :-)

I need to go grocery shopping. I am afraid I will not be able to avoid this task. We are out of meat for meals and I am out of pasta for nights when Rusty eats on base. But I CAN put it off for a little longer. :-) It is clearly necessary for me to clip coupon from yesterday's paper, before going out. Gotta save that money wherever I can! I lost my coupon book last week and couldn't find it until last night. Gonna have to go through and discard the old coupons first. This may be an intense process. 

Since I have decided to spend most of the day in the house, I am going to have to clean up some. There is no avoiding that. Rusty did so much cleaning this weekend. My work is cut out for me and I don't really have an excuse not to finish. Plus he has two tests this week so I am sure he will appreciate coming home to a clean apartment. It's the little things. :-)

Also in my day I need to head to the mailbox and drop off a netflix DVD. I think I am going to start re-watching all of True Blood so I can get Rusty to watch it with me. The new season is coming out this summer. I can't wait! Then again, I may just buy the seasons used off amazon. They have them for like $20. I looove that show and it may actually be worth the "investment". 

Jasper needs a bath really badly. However, I HATE the idea of giving him one and then watching him prance around in the mud before going potty outside. Ugh. I feel like it is just a lose-lose situation. 

If you made it all the way through this procrastination post, good for you! Major props. Thanks for reading my awkward post about what I may or may not do today. lol And the moral of this story is: go outside on a rainy day and you may be a dinosaur's dinner. kthanksbye.

Day 28 - A picture of something you are afraid of

Oh man... do yall want the physical or the emotional?? Haha!

Here is something... JELLY FISH! I am so freaked out by the idea of being stung by one. I have been told that at the beaches here it is going to happen and I just need to get over it. But oh my goodness!!

Okay. Another fear I have was discovered this time last year while Rusty was in boot camp. I know it is silly, but I am so worried that when Rusty deploys he will "fall out of love with me". Like when he gets back he won't want to be married to me any more. Or that he will love being out at sea and he will want to leave me every chance he gets. Silly, I know. Just one of those nagging thoughts in the back of my mind. :-(

Day 27 - A picture of you and a family member.

Finally! An easy one! Here is a picture of me and my mom. :-) I miss her so much! I haven't seen her since Christmas time, but she is coming up here in a few weeks so I am really excited! 

Here we are on my wedding day. :-)

Day 26 - A picture of your day

Today was actually pretty crappy. I spent another Saturday at Gloria Jeans. Don't get me wrong, I still love my job and the people I work with. However today, I was just not feelin the love. I just wanted to be with my husband on his day off. I knew working weekends were a part of the position when I was hired, I guess I just didn't really know it would be EVERY weekend. It is really hard for Rusty and I since the weekends are all he has. 

Again though, I love my job. I love making expresso drinks and chillers. I love meeting new people, even if our interaction is brief. I really am happy as a barista. It is just hitting me how close we may be getting to deployments and I feel like I am hardly seeing him as it is. We talked about me getting another job, but honestly that wouldn't even be worth it. In a few months he will be finished with power school and in prototype he won't have a set M-F schedule. Then I may RATHER work weekends. Today I was just really down about the whole thing though. :-( 

Since I was so down and mentally preoccupied I also didn't enjoy my job like usual. I didn't feel connected to my coworkers, kinda like the new kid again.... pushed out of the loop. I felt like they would intentionally wait to say things until I was not around. Just little things like that. It was probably just the mood I was in though. 

Sigh.... another wasted Saturday at Gloria Jeans...

I thought that slogan was kinda ironic. lol
